A study explores how natural photochemical reactions can help degrade emerging contaminants in freshwater systems, specifically focusing on clofibric acid and diclofenac. The research highlights the contrasting effects of triplet sensitization and direct photolysis, providing new insights into how these processes can mitigate pollutant levels in lakes. The findings underscore the potential of photochemical reactions in supporting global efforts for water management and pollution control.
